To all those people living in the Land of Oz.

We are in a World wide Islamic Cultural War or 1400-year-old Jihad.

We each see a different parts of it in the world and if you put all the violent parts together it adds up to only one cause: an 1400 year old Islamic Cultural War. It is the same as that joke of four blind men touching the elephant.

Arabs and Palestinians are controlled by it and do not know it!

It is not about land, rights or settlements, water or being politically left or right. If it were it would have been solved long ago. It has not.

It is Cultural War that means Islamic Culture must destroy Western Culture or Western Culture must destroy Islamic Culture. It is a Genocidal War.

Muslims have been fighting each other and others for 1400 years or more. There is no reason that it will stop now. If we want peace we must change Islamic Culture.

The book "Culture and Conflict", explains it clearly. It shows that current cultural conditions in the Arab Middle East will not support internal development, advancement or peace until there is a major cultural change. "It is critical that we understand our enemy. That is step one in every conflict," RR. Philip Carl Salzman, INSB # 978-1-59102-587-0.
